Quiet Horizon

by Christian Ovís

‘Quiet Horizon’ depicts a light, stylised human figure amidst tall flowers, leaves and slender stems. The face has no defined features and retains a calm, oval shape. Cream, soft grey and sand colours dominate the composition, with dark leaf shapes and small ochre-coloured accents. On the right, a large flower rises on a long, slender stem.

The figure and the plants partially merge into one another. Thin lines and delicate stems criss-cross the light-coloured body, whilst larger leaves at the sides provide rhythm. There is plenty of open space at the top. The flower shapes vary in height and size, allowing the eye to move calmly across the image. The subtle background and weathered appearance lend the scene a gentle, poetic atmosphere. The human figure and nature together form a single, simplified whole.

This botanical wall decoration in neutral colours suits a living room, bedroom or hall with a tranquil décor. The light shades complement wood, cream and grey accessories; the darker leaves can be paired with black details. A plain wall gives the delicate forms plenty of space. From a distance, the light figure stands out amongst the tall flowers. Up close, the fine lines, small flower buds and subtle colour variations become visible.
